Su Ran returned from watering outside the door at this moment.
As he passed Wu Lei, he glanced at his game progress, understood the situation, and then walked away.
He, of course, also noticed the three new customers who had just entered, but he temporarily ignored them.
In fact, as the Internet Cafe gradually gained some fame, new faces would occasionally appear.
So he had already told the old players in advance to explain the basic knowledge of the Internet Cafe to the newcomers as much as possible.
And he himself still had things to do at this time.
As soon as Su Ran returned to the counter, he put down his tools, then picked up a black notebook on the counter, opened it, and saw that most of one blank page was already filled.
Su Ran couldn't help but pull out a ballpoint pen from his pocket and continued to write.
...
Meanwhile, on the other side.
The obese middle-aged man stared at the computer, becoming more and more excited, and as the battle on the screen unfolded, he began to shout along.
"The wind pressure is gone, cut it, cut it!"
"He's charging over, hurry up and dodge, oh my god, how can you not dodge such a simple attack?"
"It's flying, it's definitely going to breathe fire soon!"
The obese middle-aged man at this moment was like a chatterbox king, starting to madly output.
This made the other players around him unable to speak for a while, and they all looked at him with strange expressions.
"No way, he died just like that?"
"Oh, you're too weak!"
Wu Lei's state this time was indeed not as good as the previous times; after failing many times, he felt increasingly irritable as he played, so in the middle of a fight, a misstep in his movement led to him being instantly killed by a Steel Dragon's claw.
He was feeling frustrated when he heard the complaints from behind him, almost spitting out a mouthful of old blood. He couldn't help but take off the virtual reality device and gave the obese middle-aged man a resentful look.
He really wanted to say, I'll let you try, if you're so capable?
But then he thought, there were already so many people queuing for a spot, would he be a fool to give up his spot? So he didn't say anything, turned his head, and put on the virtual reality device again.
"Why isn't he using Martial Qi?"
It was Li Yun, who had been silent all this time, who suddenly asked, "I've watched him play for so long, and he hasn't even used Martial Qi. If he used Martial Qi, it should be much easier to fight, right?"
"Of course he can't use it. You can't use Martial Qi in the game world!"
A player explained with a smile, "However, even though you can't use Martial Qi, you can still compensate for some basic differences with equipment and items, but the most important thing is combat technique. Look at Lord Wu in front of you, his equipment is actually decent, but he still finds it so hard to fight this desolate beast!"
Li Yun was even more surprised by this, and now looking at the computer and the game in front of him, he liked it more and more, suddenly feeling that the biggest surprise of his trip to Feiyun Country was this.
The obese man next to him had shining eyes: "I think this design is great. Everyone is on the same starting line, and it just so happens that I don't really like to cultivate!"
The goatee man also nodded in agreement.
By this time, after watching for so long, they had basically understood what playing games was all about, and their interest naturally grew stronger.
However, precisely because of this, just watching was no longer enough.
The obese man was already a bit impatient to play himself, and quickly asked, "Who can guide me on how to turn on the computer and enter the game? I want to play!"
"Turn on the computer?"
The other players looked at each other when they heard this, and all shook their heads with a wry smile: "You'd have to have a spot first. The Internet Cafe only has so many machines, and they're all taken. Haven't you seen that we're all standing here?"
"Ah?"
The obese man panicked when he heard this: "Then what should I do?"
"Either come earlier tomorrow, or you can wait for other players to log off, but whether you can wait for one is unknown!"
At this point, another player said, "But I've noticed that more people have been logging off in the afternoons and evenings recently. If you're lucky, you might get a spot in a few hours!"
"Come tomorrow? Wait a few hours?"
The obese middle-aged man's face went blank for a moment, then he became annoyed again. After learning how interesting the game was, he didn't want to wait a single moment longer.
He couldn't help but run towards the counter.
"Boss, I want to play games. Tell me how I can cut in line to get on a machine. I can't wait!"
Su Ran stopped writing and looked up, saying, "I'm sorry, no cutting in line!"
The obese middle-aged man, with the air of a rich man, waved his hand: "Any amount of money is fine, just name your price!"
Su Ran was unmoved: "It's not about money. This is the rule of this establishment. Any amount of money is useless."
The obese middle-aged man still wouldn't give up and continued, "Boss, aren't you running a business to make money? You don't want the money I'm offering?"
However, Su Ran didn't even open his mouth this time, clearly not wanting to deal with him anymore.
Seeing this, the obese man gritted his teeth in anger, feeling incredibly frustrated.
The obese man's name was Jia Baolai, a wealthy local merchant who owned several mines. He had nothing but money, and he had always felt that there weren't many interesting places in Feiyun City, so he was usually quite bored.
Now, after finally encountering something that interested him, he couldn't even play it?
"Boss, can you make an exception? We really want to play your game!"
At this moment, the goatee man also followed up, saying with a hopeful expression. His name was Wang Chunhua, and he was a famous fabric store owner in the city.
"If you really want to play, just queue up or come back tomorrow!"
Su Ran emphasized again.
Jia Baolai and Wang Chunhua exchanged glances upon hearing this, their faces showing helplessness, feeling there was nothing they could do, and they didn't speak further.
But suddenly, a figure passed by them.
"Oh?"
"Then what if I absolutely must play now?"
Li Yun walked over with a smile, staring at Su Ran as he spoke.
Su Ran glanced at Li Yun. Although he didn't feel any hostility from him, he still said, "If you want to cause trouble in the Internet Cafe, you'll never be able to play games again!"
"Heh heh, those words won't scare me. I'm leaving Feiyun City this afternoon, and I don't have that much time to wait!"
"And what Li Yun wants, he won't give up so easily!"
Li Yun swept another glance at the Internet Cafe and said with a smile, "However, I quite like it here, and I don't want to do anything too excessive. How about this, Boss, I see you haven't restrained your aura, and your Martial Qi is abundant within you. You must be a martial artist, and not a weak one at that."
"Let's resolve this in the way of martial artists, a Martial Arts Duel. If you lose, you give me a computer to play on, how about it?"
Martial Arts Duel?
Su Ran was startled, a little surprised, but he didn't show much panic, only a thoughtful expression.
He was pondering a question.
That is, does a Martial Arts Duel count as causing trouble for the establishment?
Will the system intervene?
